Didn't know it supported origin.

All steam mover is doing is using a directory junction to move your files somewhere else while making the OS think it's where it originally is... it's nothing special or exclusive to steam. You could do it without steam mover, but it's easier if it's automated for you.

Directory junction just basically makes a hard link to an entire directory so you can store the file on your SSD and steam, origin, or whatever will think it's still installed where it was originally put.---http://raptr.com/badge/arleas/uc.pnghttp://www.speedtest.net/result/2868545294.png

cut and paste the game files from the original location to the new downloaded games one, click install, origin will verify the files and you can play---Why are you always smiling?'Cause it's all so f***in' hysterical.

The Origin location is in the same spot as the old one. The game installed quickly but I had to start a new game. Ughh I want my damn games. I really don't want to start a new game.

Is the save file in a different location?---Steam/XBL/PSN: ShadowShooter933DS FC: 1332-8869-6872

It should be. I believe the saved data is in X:\Program Files (x86)\EA Games\, possibly \Ea Games\Origin.But I DO know for a fact that some games don't store their data there, and instead save it to C:\Users\user\AppData. I had this problem when I had to format my C: drive, half the saved data is still there and half isn't.---i5-3570K @ 4.6 GHz | HD IceQ X 7850 | Z77-D3H | 700W | Intel 550 180GB | Seagate Barracuda 1T | Seagate XTD 2T + 16GB SSHD | 2x8 GB RAM
